Scrapped Princess

I can't remember if I've posted about Scrapped Princess yet. This is another of the new shows this season. So far we're only up to episode five, but things are quite interesting so far. The story is about a young girl who is due to destroy the world when she turns 16. They haven't really been quite clear as to what that means exactly, but an oracle predicted it and supposed it will definitely come true.

The show itself has a nice feel, it moves between having comedic moments that are quite fun, and more serious, bittersweet moments. As is typical in many shows, there's much more to what's going on than meets the eye. I have some theories, but they are really only half theories because I don't have enough information. Hopefully, number six will come out soon!

I'm really enjoying Scrapped Princess as well. I don't really know why, but it already feels like a classic to me... Who knows, maybe it will end up as one of the newer "classic anime" after a few years.

I have a couple theories as well - I think there's going to be some interesting stuff going on between Pacifica and the "Church", myself.

I just found this anime a few days ago and I've already seen all the episodes. Are there any movies or OVAs for it, and does anyone know where to find a site and/or fanfiction?

*sigh* I just wish it had been longer... or that Pacifica had matured into a strong, capable teenager/woman/whatever, like Racquelle or the Beast Princess... but I suppose part of her charm is that she's not the strongest or the brightest, but always gets it right in the end.

Anyway, I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone could direct me toward Scrapped Princess fanfiction and fansites and/or tell me whether or not there are any movies or OVAs, and where to find them. My email is Flaming_Emerald@hotmail.com. Thanks!
